Which browser does /g/ use? Why?
Firefox Developer's Edition
Doesn't crash while browsing and it's pretty fast.

I generally do not connect to web sites from my own machine, aside from a few sites I have some special relationship with. I fetch web pages from other sites by sending mail to a program (see git://git.gnu.org/womb/hacks.git) that fetches them, much like wget, and then mails them back to me. Then I look at them using a web browser, unless it is easy to see the text in the HTML page directly. I usually try lynx first, then a graphical browser if the page needs it (but I make sure I have no net connection, so that it won't fetch anything else).

So you don't use browsers

RMS please
>/g/ universally agreeing to one browser
Cyberfox AMD edition.
Firefox uses too much RAM for me and freezes sometimes which is unusable, Cyberfox generally uses less RAM and doesn't freeze on me.
Donut RAPT
Chrome until Chromium is stable.

Since the company I work for lends out computers strictly for work, I converted a USB into a dedicated Hiren's Boot. Mini Windows XP and the Linux it comes with is neat as fuck but can't play non-web browser games.
Firefox Developer Edition x64.

How does one make Firefox good?
I've used it, but videos are so sluggish and laggy.
>>47545179
I'm guessing you're mostly talking about youtube & the like in which case enabling html5 helps.

Vivaldi because Chrome/Firefox/Opera are bloated and deprecated pieces of shit.
I am hoping Spartan will have similar UI.

Hello there, friend. I believe, you've mistakenly confused a browser with another type of program: a media player. Unlike the latter, browsers are used to view web pages, not multimedia content. Don't worry, this is a common mistake, for viewing media content you are recommended to use your favorite media player program, such as mpv or Bomi.
Chromium and occasionally Firefox for when chromium starts acting up.
Opera and Chrome.
>>47543618
Firefox ESR.

I've started a thread about distro on the go to discuss a bout which distro is best put on USB and whether to install it on the USB or just make liveusb with persistence never got a good answer what do you say?
>>47543618
Spartan
>>47543618
Opera because I feel sorry for it
>>47543809
Freetard please
>>47545938
Not him, but similar problem with youtube and other video sites.
Enabling the 5html player didn't help.
Right now I'm using smtube to view them in mpv

Chromium is stable
Iceweasel
Opera 12

Was, until v4 ruined everything.
Speaking about browser, android preinstalled browser(especially the one from 4.0x~4.2x)is shit.
Maxthon.
Chromium

Why does she have her chest showing like that?

>>47546775
Maxthon 4.4.4.3000 here. Now that Maxthon comes with ABP pre-built into browser, it's only got better. I almost ditched Chrome (with ublock0) for Maxthon with ABP.

Who is that jizzard wizzard?
>>47547623
What's good about it?
>>47547623
Maxthon whitelist their own site and they encourage "rankings" for most ads blocked. I don't know what they're thinking.
>>47547686
Maxthon 3 had constant innovation and developed at a constant pace. Right now the only good qualities are the fact it's one of the few Chinese softwares available in English as well as having common features shared with browsers from that part of the world, like pop-up windows for Flash content.
Unfortunately they've been completely ignoring the security warnings about SSLv3 and mixed active content handling, and that they're using an older Chromium core (even integrating Chromium 37 is too hard for them).
Firefox for most things. Chrome if I need to print something, because I like the Print Friendly plugin.
Thinking about trying this:

What was it that you were saying about whitelisting, again? Pic attached & related.
Don't blame your failure of not understanding how ABP works & how to use it to your advantage on Maxthon.
Firefox, because vimperator.

>attacking me for what others have experienced
Pic related, this is what one of the testers got on a clean install.
